bsstoner / connect-auth

Authentication middleware for connect.

connect-auth

Useful authentication strategies based on warden. Available as a npm package.

Provides out of the box authentication strategies for:

• HTTP Basic - sole or negotiated
• HTTP Digest - sole or negotiated
• Anonymous
• Never
• Facebook connect (OAuth 2)
• Github (OAuth 2)
• Yahoo (OAuth 1.0A)
• Twitter (OAuth 1.0)
• RPXNow / janrain SSO
• Foursquare (thanks to http://github.com/stunti)
• Custom OAuth Provider Strategy (Be your own 1.0A OAuth provider!) (A Port of Christian Amor Kvalheim's express-oauth-plugin)

Please note this has only just been ported over from express, and whilst it does in fact now work again, I've not yet fully ported the tests or example applications so your mileage may vary :)

Take Care!
